TikTok Shop, Instagram/Facebook Shops, and YouTube Shopping are collapsing discovery and purchase into one screen. Brands that treat Shops like a proper sales channel—not a widget—are pulling ahead.
What “good” looks like
- Product feeds are clean and synchronized (titles, variants, inventory).
- Creators and affiliates have shoppable links and clear briefs.
- Live + short-form content drives time-bound offers.
- UTM and promo code structure attribute revenue cleanly.
The build
- Catalog hygiene first. Use plain-language titles, 1–2 primary keywords, bullets for benefits, and 5–7 image angles. Keep GTIN/SKU consistent across Shopify/Woo/Shop systems.
- Fulfillment & policy compliance. Set service levels, returns, dispute workflows. Nothing kills velocity like a policy strike.
- Creator engine. Draft modular briefs: hooks, objections to address, must-show features, and required CTAs. Compensate on hybrid (flat + rev share).
- Live shopping calendar. Weekly programming: product drops, “how it’s made,” bundle offers, and restocks. Repurpose clips as Reels/Shorts with native captions.
- Offer architecture. Bundle AOV boosters (x2 units, mystery add-on, limited color), timed coupons, and shop-exclusive SKUs.
- Measure what matters. Track shop conversion rate, view-to-add-to-cart, creator ROAS, refund rate, and repeat purchase from shop-only buyers.
Creative that moves product
- Open with the problem. Show the before state in 2–3 seconds.
- Prove it. Demonstrate the key feature in one shot; use overlays for specs.
- Close the loop. “Tap to buy” + scarcity cue + social proof (review snippet).
"Social shops aren’t a widget—they’re a sales channel. Treat TikTok Shop and Meta Shops like your storefront, not your feed.”
Common failure points
- Auto-imported product titles full of internal codes.
- Inconsistent inventory; broken promotions.
- Over-indexing on views vs. shop revenue.
